Aldi amazing Grocery Six

I had a chat with a friendly shelf-checker - she gave me the new routine they seem to be following nationwide - 1 or 2 specific places for all BBD stuff - plus maybe a pile for the bread section. Interestingly it seems someone has been leaning on them because they are putting their shelf-edge labels for each product at the bargain spot there showing the full, original, price so you can work out if it's a bargain. You'll see them placing their handheld thingy under the SEL and adding the full price as they put the BBD items on the trays. In my local ALDI they do a last spin through the shelves about 8pm and slap on the 30% for BBD with tomorrow's date. Next day they revisit the 30% ones at 5-ish, marking them down to 50% or 75% depending on manager's whim. After the 8 oclock they may start gathering up the 75% ones for foodcloud or 2G2G. In another store I frequent the manager really objects to going beyond 50% (he told me - fair dues though he gives a lot out to a refugeee group and 2Good2Go) but does his markdown shortly after lunch.

Not a super 6 comment, apologies. Just wanted to post here to acknowledge Aldi for closing yesterday. Great to see someone in retail actually considering their staff. They were closed St Stephens Day, New Years day and now Easter Sunday. I don't think any of the other supermarkets closed any of those days.
